Aunt Jane's Nieces and Uncle John

''Aunt Jane's Nieces and Uncle John'' is a young-adult novel written by L. Frank Baum, famous as the creator of the Land of Oz. It is the sixth volume in the ten-book series ''Aunt Jane's Nieces'', Baum's greatest commercial success after the Oz books themselves. Like the other books in the series, this sixth volume was issued under the pen name "Edith Van Dyne," one of Baum's multiple pseudonyms.〔"Edith Van Dyne," ''Aunt Jane's Nieces and Uncle John'', Chicago, Reilly & Britton, 1911.〕
==Background==
Unlike the Oz books and Baum's other fantasies, the ''Aunt Jane's Nieces'' stories were set in the contemporary world, and so could be enriched with the author's real-life experiences. Baum based much of the material in the sixth book on a trip that he and his wife took through the American Southwest in February and March 1904〔Katharine M. Rogers, ''L. Frank Baum, Creator of Oz: A Biography'', New York, St. Martin's Press, 2002; p. 131.〕〔Angelica Shirley Carpenter and Jean Shirley, ''L. Frank Baum, Royal Historian of Oz'', Minneapolis, Lerner Publications, 1992; p. 77.〕 — just as he had earlier relied on his 1906 trip to the Mediterranean and Egypt for his books ''Aunt Jane's Nieces Abroad'' (1907) and ''The Last Egyptian'' (1908).〔Rogers, pp. 144, 152, 273 n. 54.〕
''Aunt Jane's Nieces and Uncle John'' bears some noteworthy resemblances to Baum's earlier novel ''Annabel'' (1906). Both books involve a rich man and a lost child suffering in poverty; both plots depend heavily on coincidence, and both end with a nod to divine providence.〔Rogers, pp. 138-9, 272 n. 43.〕〔''Aunt Jane's Nieces and Uncle John'', p. 265.〕
